| * [[https://www.arednmesh.org | AREDN]] is a project aimed at using wifi devices flashed with an open firmware to create a computer network independent of the internet. Since hams have access to sections of the [[https://www.rac.ca/2300-mhz-13-cm-page/|2.4 GHz]] and [[https://www.rac.ca/microwave-bands-page/ |5.8 GHz]] bands that regular wifi devices don't, those channels are quieter and longer distances can be achieved with directional antennas. | * [[https://www.arednmesh.org | AREDN]] is a project aimed at using wifi devices flashed with an open firmware to create a computer network independent of the internet.

Note that these services are only visible to a given AREDN network and are **not** accessible to the wider internet.
